Ok – that’s not a penalty, that’s an outcome.
I can see why people are looking for more guidance and certainty on conduct of Committee members, but am not convinced that a legislated code of conduct achieves much. The ongoing issue is that people will go on a Committee for a range of reasons including self interest, and those reasons will drive their behaviour, whether or not there is a code of conduct.
One thing that does come out in the Qld legislation that is not so clear in the NSW legislation, is that Committee members must act in the interests of the owners as a whole, which is a primary issue.
